Just two weeks ago I moved from eighteen mg to twelve and as of two days ago I started vaping at six mg of nicotine. Only went to six because I just started building my own coils that same exact day and even six is too strong for me. Am I building my coils wrong I am using 30 gauge kanthal with 3 mm silica wick and wrapping it about three times. I drilled out the airhole on ny igo l to 1/16.what am I doing wrong guys?

you've got a lot of variables being changed all at once Drift...tough to narrow it down. You may be confusing nic with TH, first thing I'd try is cool your coil down a bit, 3 wraps of 30 even on 3mm could meter out at 1 ohm +/-...that's a pretty hot coil. Next thing you could try is build your coil on one side of your iGo L's posts and orient the cap so the airhole opening is as close to the coil as possible (airhole close to the coil, less TH, far away, more TH)...and last but certainly not least...consider not using silica, bamboo or hemp will give you a lot smoother vape.
